v0.1.1a Engines wont start, no prop animation, High Idle kills

[Ape42]

I always keep the old versions as a backup until I know that the new one is working. Now I see why :winking_face:

[Guenseli]

@jetnoise 0.1.1a

[Ape42]

Just installed v0.1.1.a ... same issue: No props, engine dying when switching off starter.

[EDJA_Spotter]

@jetnoise oh, thats unfortunate. so i just bought a product for 35€ that doesnt work at all....

[dhmoore74]

Can we get version 1.0 back until this is fixed?

[Voice of Reason]

We're working on it folks. The developer is frantically trying to solve the issue for you and is keeping us updated. Apologies for the problems that are afoot in this latest version. Hoping to get it sorted just as quickly as we can.

[JetNoise]

@edja_spotter Nur keine Panik, wird doch gefixt....

Will be fixed,

Guys , just keep the installer of a working install (like 1.0)
and you always can revert . So easy

@edja_spotter Yes, I keep a copy of 1.0 .. had put it in Recycle but luckily I could restore it and install.

[dhmoore74]

@n38tm wish I had kept my original installed. Unfortunately I had already cleared my recycling bin

Same problem here……

[Schattenwaran]

Yup, same here. A shame that such an update has been released. Reverted back to initial version. It is not only the propellers also the GTN 750 won't work anymore.

Could solve the problem by reverting to version 0.1.0 but now my TDS GTN750 won't switch on....

[Slarti_Bart]

Anyone tried 0.1.1b yet?

Disregard....TDS GTN 750 is working, pilot mistake with Addons linker....

@slarti_bart Yes....problem is solved !

[captainmd]

I tried 0.1.1b.

First issue is the GTN750 with the GNS 530 on the right combination.
The GNS 530 does not function. None of the buttons do anything. When you try to switch the display combination, the GNS 530 screen goes blank and does not come back on.

Regarding the Engine shut down issues, that is resolved.

[N38TM]

@captainmd My 530 is working and engine issue seems somewhat resolved. Takes a long time for
engine to start turning.

No...

The Turboprop engines on the King air are free turbines.
Simple explained, the free turbine consist of the compressor, whivh is directly coupled to the gasproducer turbine.
This assembly works more or less like a normal jet engine.
The propeller is via a gearbox connected to the free turbine, which isn´t connected to the gas producer section described above (Jet engine).
The exhaust gas flow from the gasproducer drives the free turbine i.e the propeller.

When You start the engine, only the gas producer starts rotating - You can hear the engine spool up.
Once the gas flow is sufficient to drive the free turbine, the propeller starts to rotate.
